Our annual Gamma Salad Luncheon was enjoyed on May 19 by 16 guests at Real Church in Lenexa KS.
Cheers to co-hostesses Karen Blanks, Delta Epsilon (Southeast Missouri State University) ’67, and Fran Denton, Beta Gamma (Louisiana State University) ’62, who elegantly transformed the space with many items brought from home. Thanks also to Karen’s friend Julie Bradley for her assistance.
Delicious salad choices brought by members were shared with the sweet highlight being petit fours with red carnations.
We were so happy to see Nancy Neal, Xi (University of Nebraska-Lincoln) ’52, and Wilmagene Noonan, Omicron (Baker University) ’53. We also welcomed winter out-of-towner Ann Dyniewicz, Alpha Nu (University of Missouri) ’62, back from her sunny lanai in Florida. Ann sadly announced that she’s moving to Florida permanently this June. We will surely miss her smiling face at our events.
Gorgeous floral arrangements designed by Fran were giveaways at each table.
Generous donations to MacDowell artist colony resulted in a drawing for a special glass cake pedestal (mid-century Jeannette Glass Company Harp pattern). The winner was Beth Rosenwald, who as our fearless leader, was instrumental in planning.
